Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a sleeping bag type massage machine utilizing compressed air of an air compressor.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a massage machine used by a person lying down has been a flat sheet type or bed type. A motor or the like is used for the power, and most of the objects massage by mechanical action.

[0003]

However, in the conventional massage machine, the portion for pressing the massage portion is relatively hard and its movement is not smooth, so that the comfort of sleeping is not so good. Moreover, since it was not a structure to fix the body, it was always necessary to pay attention to whether the massage machine was applied to an appropriate part.

Further, most of the main bodies require a large installation space and cannot be stored compactly, and thus waste space when not in use.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is possible to comfortably obtain a massage effect even when the user's body is wrapped in a sleeping state.
The object is to provide a massager that can be compactly stored when not in use.

[0006]

In order to achieve this object, a sleeping bag type massage machine of the present invention has a first air accumulating portion for accumulating air therein, and an air accumulating portion for accumulating air therein. A sleeping bag including a second air storage unit having a hole for blowing out, an air compressor for feeding and discharging air into the sleeping bag, a detection unit for detecting a state of air in the air storage unit, and the detection. And a control device for controlling the air fed into and discharged from the sleeping bag according to the signal obtained from the means.

[0007]

The sleeping bag of the present invention having the above-mentioned structure has the first air accumulating portion for accumulating the air therein, and the second air accumulating portion for accumulating the air therein and further ejecting the accumulated air. It consists of an air accumulator. The air compressor feeds and discharges air into and from the sleeping bag. The detection means detects the state of the air in the air storage unit. The control device controls the air fed into and discharged from the sleeping bag according to the signal obtained from the detection means.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a view showing an example when the sleeping bag type massage machine according to the present invention is used, the sleeping bag type massage machine main body 11 is shown in a sectional view, and the air supply / discharge device 12 is shown in a block diagram. There is.

The sleeping bag type massage machine main body 11 is a bag-shaped sleeping bag that wraps around a human body, and like a normal sleeping bag, a zipper (not shown) that can be opened and closed at the center of the upper part so that the user can easily get in and out. Is provided. This body 11
Has a double structure for accumulating air, and the inside is divided into a plurality of air accumulating chambers 18. An air storage chamber 19 having a plurality of holes 20 is provided on the inner surface of the sleeping bag. Further, inside the sleeping bag, there is provided a massage protrusion 21 which can be contracted and expanded by air made of rubber or the like.

A tube 13 is connected to each of the air accumulating chambers 18, 19 and the massage protrusion 21 so that each of the air accumulating chambers 18, 19 and the massage protrusion 2 is connected.
Air is fed into and discharged from the air supply / exhaust device 12 through the tubes 13 via the respective tubes 13. Further, a temperature sensor 22 for detecting the temperature inside the sleeping bag is provided in the sleeping bag.

The air supply / exhaust device 12 has an air compressor 16 for producing compressed air, a heater 23 for warming the compressed air produced by the air compressor 16, and a destination of the compressed air for the air storage chamber 18 or the air. A switching valve 14 that switches to the storage chamber 19, a pressure sensor 15 that detects the pressure of compressed air, an air compressor 16, and a switching valve 1.
4 and the control device 17 for controlling 4.

Next, the pressure control operation of the present invention will be described.

The control device 17 switches the switching valve 14 so that the compressed air is sent to the respective air storage chambers 18. The pressure of each air accumulation chamber 18 is set by the switching valve 14
Is applied to the pressure sensor 15 via. The hardness of the sleeping bag is
The pressure signal detected by the pressure sensor 15 is sent to the controller 17. The control device 17 determines whether or not the pressure of each air storage chamber 18 is at a set value set by a sleeping bag hardness setting switch (not shown),
When the value is different from the set value, the air compressor 16 is stopped and started, and the pressure in each air storage chamber 18 is controlled to be the set value. In this way, the hardness of the sleeping bag can be changed by changing the pressure set value of each air accumulation chamber 18, and the desired sleeping comfort can be realized.

The control unit 17 controls the air compression chamber 1
Compressed air is fed into and discharged from the compressor 8 at a periodic rhythm or an aperiodic rhythm. The massage protrusions 21 provided inside the sleeping bag are vibrated by the compressed air supplied and discharged.
In this way, the sleeping bag wrapping around the body of the user and the vibration of the massage protrusion 21 provide a comfortable massage.

Next, the temperature control operation of the present invention will be described.

The temperature inside the sleeping bag is detected by the temperature sensor 22, and the detected temperature signal is sent to the controller 17. The control device 17 determines whether or not the inside of the sleeping bag is at a comfortable temperature based on the temperature signal.

When it is determined that the temperature is too high, the controller 17 activates the air compressor 16 to generate compressed air. At this time, the controller 17 does not operate the heater 23. Next, the destination of the compressed air is the air storage chamber 1
The switching valve 14 is switched so as to be 9 and the compressed air is fed into the air accumulation chamber 19. The sent compressed air is discharged into the sleeping bag through the hole 20 provided in the air accumulation chamber 19,
Lower the temperature inside the sleeping bag.

When it is determined that the temperature is too low, the controller 17 activates the air compressor 16 to generate compressed air and activates the heater 23. Next, the changeover valve 14 is switched so that the destination of the compressed air is the air storage chamber 19, and the compressed air is fed into the air storage chamber 19. At this time, since the heater 23 is operating, warmed compressed air is supplied to the holes 20 provided in the air accumulation chamber 19.
It is more released into the sleeping bag and raises the temperature inside the sleeping bag.

In this way, the inside of the sleeping bag is kept at a comfortable temperature for the user.

The use of the sleeping bag type massage machine according to the present invention has been described above. When the sleeping bag type massage machine is not used, the sleeping bag type massage machine main body 11 is discharged by exhausting the air from the air accumulating chambers 18 and 19 and the massage protrusion 21. The volume can be reduced and it can be stored compactly.

[0022]

As is apparent from the above description, the sleeping bag type massage machine of the present invention can wrap the user's body and obtain a comfortable sleeping effect by vibrating comfortably and vibrating. Further, there is an effect that it can be compactly stored when not in use.
